Richard Avedon Inspired


Richard Avedon was an American fashion and portrait photographer. He was born on May 15, 1923 in New York. He was in possession of Kodak Box Brownie camera by the age of 12. Richard Avedon died in 2004 because of a brain haemorrage. 
                                                                                                                                           
 Our group was inspired by Richard Avedon because we liked how he put the style just in one picture. How all his pictures were mostly black and white.

Advanced Photo - Period 3 Portrait Lesson

Portrait Photography
Family Portraits
Family photography tips

What I learned by seeing and reading these websites is that if you wear light colors in a family portrait the photograph looks differently than if they wore dark colors. Also it depends on the background. If you are taking a family portrait sometimes it is necessary to use flash, so do so if you need to. Reasonable shutter speeds of at least 1/124s.
